* TakeThat: When the calendar page shows Thanksgiving, an animated turkey moves back and forth between the 20th and the 27th due to the date being changed from the last Thanksgiving to the week prior during the last three years (Democrat states would honor the change, Republican ones wouldn't). A joint resolution was signed during the filming that finally set the date of Thanksgiving to the fourth Thursday of November.

Ted scrambles for a sec before stating, quite logically, that any girl would need an overcoat outside in a Connecticut February.
